Figure 8A depicts as an example the frictional ratio of cylinders as a function of their aspect ratio. This relationship for shape analysis of cylinders and platelets was recently demonstrated for graphene oxide monolayers (Walter et al, 2015b). The frictional ratio plotted on the y-axis is the drag force of the...
